(Worthy News) -Californians are temporarily banned from singing in churches as part of an effort to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
The state’s Department of Public Health issued an update to its COVID-19 guidelines Wednesday that gave new instructions to all places of worship as cases in the state spike.
